Waste & Recycling

Everyday we throw out tonnes of recyclable material, leading to additional extraction of non-renewable resources. At the same time, our tip sites are filling up fast and the waste we produce is a significant contributor to our emissions.

Transition Town Guildford are keen to reduce waste, increase recycling, and encourage composting and worm farms.

We also hope to turn Guildford and surrounding areas into a plastic bag free zone. Check out the Campaigns page for ways to take action.

If this interests you, contact the convenor of the Waste and Recycling group: Barb Frey (barb@encompasscoaching.com.au).

    Hi Barb I am new to this group and was wondering if anything is being done or if there is any interest by this group in regard to participating in ‘Garage Sale Trail 2014’
